Return of the Crowned Heiress

Chapter 126

The hospital where Matthew was staying belonged to the Lawson family, so an entire floor had been reserved for him. It was a peaceful atmosphere. Outside, bodyguards stood watch; inside, medical staff were on standby around the clock. Kayla linked her arm with Arnold's and held a bouquet in her other hand. Her stiletto heels echoed crisply in the quiet corridor, creating a jarring contrast.

They soon arrived at the door to the ward. Just as Arnold was about to greet his grandfather, a metal tray came hurtling toward them, stopping his words. The tray hit the door before clattering to the floor and rolling to a stop. The surroundings returned to silence. Matthew, with his back to them, remained in a foul mood. "Get out!"

Arnold pressed his lips together, choosing not to respond.

Kayla, clutching her chest as if frightened, said with a quiver in her voice, "Mr. Lawson Senior, I-I came to see you..."

Matthew still didn't turn around and coldly dismissed her with a huff, "Well, you've seen me. You can leave."

"Mr. Lawson Senior, I know it was my fault. If it weren't for me, Arnie wouldn't have run away from the engagement party. But... we really couldn't help ourselves. Can't you support us?"

Tears welled up in Kayla's eyes.

Arnold frowned, admonishing her, "Kayla, go home! Don't say such things!"
